Which is better battery for my mod 50w
[h=3]Efest 18650 3000mah 3.7V Protected Li-ion with Button top [/h]
or

[h=3]Efest 35A IMR 18650 2500mah flat top high drain[/h]

Of those two choices, the purple Efest is the best.

But there are better batteries if you want to explore further, such as Sony VTC4, Orbtronic SX30, and some models by LG and Samsung.

Purple Efest is a nice choice but it should be button top, not flat top just in case.

The new AW IMR 18650 2200mah

If you really wish to buy a good battery then stick to the high end ones .over a year on Panasonic 18650.
You get what you pay for !

If it were me, i'd ditch both of those and buy samsung 25r batteries. I've got them and they're amazing

The choice of top would depend on the mod being used. For example the dreambox recommends flat tops. You also need to look at the amp rating. I never had an issue with the purple effest or the aw. Stopped using the aw due to the low amp rating. Been using vct 5 and those new yellow ones can't remember the brand. I won't buy anything that can't to burst of 30 amps

Samsung batteries are better

The purple Efest 2100s are better then the 2500s
